Pupwelfare

Project

The research within the PupWelfare project focuses on welfare, behaviour and health of puppies sold in Belgium.

In collaboration with Profs. J. Dewulf, C. Moons and T. de Keuster from the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine as well as the universities of Namur (Prof. C. Diederich) and Liège (Prof. E. Thirry), veterinarian Pierre-Alexandre Dendoncker examines the current situation at the different types of puppy breeders/merchants in Belgium and aims to identify possible risk factors for socialisation, behaviour, welfare and health.
